Summary Born with several genetic abnormalities, 10-year-old

August Pullman, called Auggie, dreams of being “ordinary.” Inside, he knows he’s like every other kid, but even after 27 surgeries, the central character of “Wonder” bears facial disfigurations so pronounced that people who see him for the first time do “that look-away thing” — if they manage to hide their shock and horror.

“Whatever you’re thinking, it’s probably worse,” he says of his face as the book begins. He’s used to the stares and mean comments, but he’s still terrified to learn that his parents have gotten him into middle school at Beecher Prep and want him to go there rather than be home-schooled. But they persuade him to give it a try — and by the time this rich and memorable first novel by R. J. Palacio is over, it’s not just Auggie but everyone around him who has changed.

Rising Action

We as a group think that the rising action is this book is highlighted when August keeps getting bullied every day. We think he gets heated up from all the bullying and gets angry, and that’s when he decides to take a stand

Climax

The climax in this story was when August had his own side in the battle against Julian by getting all the neutrals on his team. Once he got enough he defeated the evil Julian and everyone decided to deal with him and get used to his face.

Falling Action

We think that the falling action is this story was when everyone decided to live with the fact that August’s face was deformed and different from theirs. They all had to learn how to cope with what was happening and I was glad they did.
